Helping you shine One story at a time!

“Sam, I am” didn’t like green eggs and ham, but after he went through a journey in Dr. Seuss’ story, he changed his mind and loved them. No matter what the issue -- communication disputes, leadership problems, or team building, stories can help change the situation for the better.

My name is Steven Hollingsworth, and I am a master storyteller who helps companies create business solutions through storytelling. I gain inspiration from many fairytales, parables, and cartoons. While others find joy and laughter in the silliness, I find strength, determination and creative solutions to problems. 

I’m a motivational speaker who specializes in leadership, communication, and team building, among other topics. I can help your company tackle productivity, retention and interpersonal communication -- and shine -- all through the power of storytelling! 

Along the way, I can help you better tell your stories to your employees, prospective customers, and others within the communities you serve for stronger connections and more mutually beneficial relationships.

 Research shows that storytelling is incredibly important because it taps into our brains' natural ability to process information through narrative, allowing us to connect with information on an emotional level. Stories make it more memorable, persuasive, and impactful for building empathy, understanding complex ideas, and facilitating social connection .
